\r\nIntroduction<\/b><\/p>\r\n

\r\nThe\r\nfollowing letter was sent to CAIR, The Council on American-Islamic\r\nRelations,<\/i> forwarding them my comment to the article\r\n“Islamophobia on the rise in USA” which highlighted their\r\nreport, with a short preamble prefacing that comment.<\/p>\r\n

\r\nFirst,\r\nsome context for non-Muslim readers who might be unfamiliar with\r\nmatters peculiar to Muslims which Muslims implicitly understand, and\r\nwhich often forms the unarticulated sub-text of our communications\r\namongst each other:<\/p>\r\n

\r\n-\r\nAOA is the internet vernacular for the greeting 'Assalaam O Alekum'.\r\nIt loosely means 'may peace be with you'. \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\n-\r\n“jihad-un-nafs” is the Qur'anic concept of inner courage\r\nand strength one must acquire in oneself ( \r\n يُجَاهِدُ\r\nلِنَفْسِهِ\r\nۚ <\/span>Holy\r\nQur'an Surah Al-Ankaboot, 29:6) in order to strive for truth and\r\njustice in practice before one will in fact ever be able to practice\r\ntruth and justice ( \r\nوَتَوَاصَوْا\r\nبِالْحَقِّ\r\n <\/span>Holy\r\nQur'an Surah Al-Asr 103:3) in one's conduct with fellow man. It is\r\noften referred out of context as simply the “inner struggle”\r\nfor the control of the “self”. That out-of-context\r\nmeaning typically relegates it to a meaningless spiritual battle of\r\nno consequence to alleviating the suffering<\/span>\r\nof fellow man from all causes, including tyranny. It is among the\r\nmany hijackings of the religion Islam by its venerable imperial\r\nscholars, experts, narrators, and mullahs who have served empire\r\nthroughout history unto the present day, and the ignorant peoples of\r\nall stripes who bow before these “experts” without using\r\ntheir own commonsense, to turn Islam, the religion of implementing\r\njustice for oneself as much as for fellow man, into merely one of a\r\ngibberish religion of rituals and soulful Arabic recitations.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n-\r\nAs Muslims, we love wearing our religion upon our forehead. We are\r\nalso perhaps the most ritualistic pious people on earth. Our mosques\r\nare full of heaven seekers. But when it comes to implementing the\r\ncore meaningful constructs of the religion which transcend the\r\nrituals of piety, we are the proverbial empty drum – make a lot\r\nof noise. We love to carry the banner of \"Islam\" in our\r\nnames, titles, institutions, national constitutions<\/span>,\r\netc. The non-Muslim not entirely taken in by our show of pious\r\nrituals would surely have noticed that more we use the word \"Islamic\"\r\nin our designations and affiliations, more we appear to please false\r\ngods while making all our pretenses<\/span> to the\r\nOne True God we proclaim to worship. \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\n-\r\nBetween being useful idiots and pleasing false gods, the choice is\r\noften straightforward for us Muslims. Do both. No outsider can tell\r\nthe difference anyway. It has many advantages – for when\r\ncaught, we can proclaim we were fooled, that we didn't know. Works\r\ngreat – on the one hand it serves the interests of the false\r\ngods du jour, on the other it protects us from retribution if ever\r\nthe false gods change and new ones become our masters. \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\n-\r\nUnlike Christians and Christianity, we have two completely separate\r\nwords to designate the people who proclaim to follow the religion or\r\nare born into that culture (Muslims) vs. the divine religion (Islam).\r\nAny time you see one terminology aliasing for another, you might do\r\nwell to remember that there is some axe to grind somewhere. Bernard\r\nLewis is the venerable master of this obfuscation now being amiably\r\ncarried by CAIR, when he began his treatise “Crisis of Islam –\r\nHoly War and Unholy Terror” with the following gem:<\/p>\r\n

\r\n“It\r\nis difficult to generalize about Islam. To begin with, the word\r\nitself is commonly used with two related but distinct meanings, as\r\nthe equivalents both of Christianity, and Christendom. In the one\r\nsense, it denotes a religion, as system of beliefs and worship; in\r\nthe other, the civilization that grew up and flourished under the\r\naegis of that religion. The word Islam thus denotes more than\r\nfourteen centuries of history, a billion and a third people, and a\r\nreligious and cultural tradition of enormous diversity.”\r\n(Bernard Lewis, Crisis of Islam, pg. 1).<\/p>\r\n

\r\nThat\r\nlast sentence is the diabolical deception with which imperial\r\ncraftsmanship subverts our religion<\/span>: “The\r\nword Islam thus denotes more than fourteen centuries of history, a\r\nbillion and a third people, and a religious and cultural tradition of\r\nenormous diversity.”<\/b> <\/span>\r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nAccording\r\nto the Author of the Holy Qur'an upon which the religion of Islam is\r\nbased, the word Islam denotes only, and only, the following: “This\r\nday have I perfected for you your religion and completed My favor on\r\nyou and chosen for you Islam as a religion;”<\/b> ( \r\nالْيَوْمَ\r\nأَكْمَلْتُ\r\nلَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ\r\nوَأَتْمَمْتُ\r\nعَلَيْكُمْ\r\nنِعْمَتِي\r\nوَرَضِيتُ\r\nلَكُمُ الْإِسْلَامَ\r\nدِينًا ۚ <\/span>Holy\r\nQur'an, Surah Al-Maida 5:3) \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nThat\r\nis the only, repeat only, context in which the word “Islam”\r\ncan be legitimately used. It is the only context in which Qur'an has\r\nused it – as indicating a divine religion, quite separate from\r\nits followers, and the affairs of its followers. That separation of\r\nterminology is itself espoused in the Holy Qur'an by virtue of having\r\na separate terminology. It is in fact a\r\ndistinction of Islam in comparison to all the other Abrahamic\r\nreligions which do not feature such a clear separation. <\/span>This\r\nis why followers of Prophet Muhammad for instance are not called\r\nMohammedans<\/span>, nor believers of Islam\r\nIslamic, except by the prejudicial orientalists.<\/span>\r\nThe word designated in<\/span> the Holy Qur'an for\r\nthem is Muslims. \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nAll\r\nwho misuse the Qur'anic terminology, Muslims and non-Muslims alike,\r\nare either ignorant peoples, or, the respected apprentices of\r\nMachiavelli. In the latter case, they deliberately<\/span>\r\ntry to subvert the religion of Islam by associating<\/span>\r\nit with the inglorious deeds, and the kingly history of Muslims. One\r\ncan immediately see the result of such gratuitous binding –\r\nread the afore-cited book of Bernard Lewis if one is a naïve\r\nbaby only born yesterday and magically became a scholar overnight.<\/p>\r\n

\r\nBased\r\nsolely on that premeditated collateral damage to language –\r\ndrawing false associations by overloading semantics in an already\r\nwell-defined nomenclature, also the principal basis of subliminally\r\nas well as cognitively binding something virtuous with something\r\nabhorrent such that when the virtuous is mentioned, the abhorrent\r\nnaturally springs to mind – that Samuel Huntington, the late\r\ncircus clown of empire at Harvard, diabolically made the following\r\nstatement in his treatise “The Clash of Civilizations”:<\/p>\r\n

\r\n“The\r\nunderlying problem for the West is not Islamic fundamentalism. It\r\nis Islam, a different civilization whose people are convinced of the\r\nsuperiority of their culture and are obsessed with the inferiority of\r\ntheir power.<\/b> The problem for Islam is not the CIA or the US\r\nDepartment of Defense. It is the West, a different civilization whose\r\npeople are convinced of the universality of their culture and believe\r\nthat their superior, if declining, power imposes on them the\r\nobligation to extend that culture throughout the world. These are the\r\nbasic ingredient that fuel conflict between Islam and the West.”\r\n(Samuel Huntington, The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of\r\nWorld Order, 1996, pg. 217)<\/p>\r\n

\r\nSince\r\nwhen did Islam become a civilization? A civilization is an aggregate\r\nof peoples. Whereas Islam is a religion. A religion can be practiced\r\nin any civilization and by any peoples, including right here in the\r\nUSA. \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nSuch\r\npremeditated collateral damage to language enabled forging the US\r\nforeign policy<\/span> in the aftermath of 9\/11\r\nagainst the cleverly devised Hegelian construct of “militant\r\nIslam”, to mask what Zbigniew Brzezinski termed “imperial\r\nmobilization” <\/i>in his own\r\ntreatise, “The Grand Chessboard”, pg. 36.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\r\nThe\r\nroots of Islamophobia are very distinguished indeed. It is the twain\r\nof Islamofascism and militant Islam<\/span> –\r\nthe pretext for the 'War on Terror'. One cannot be examined in\r\nisolation from the other any more than leaves of a tree can be\r\nexamined in isolation from its DNA. 'Tis rather obvious! \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nWe\r\nMuslims understand this sub-text of the War on Terror – even\r\nwhen we refuse to say it out loud in public. One can hear it in\r\nhushed living-room<\/span> conversations throughout\r\nthe Muslim world. We might act cowardly in public – but we\r\naren't so stupid when we stare in the mirror. \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nWhile\r\none expects empire and its instruments to indulge in such\r\ndiabolically specious story-telling, and they do – from academe\r\nto politicians to newsmedia – one does not expect the\r\nself-proclaimed representatives of its victims to do the same. But\r\nthis anomalous<\/span> behavior resoundingly echoes\r\nin every instance of Muslims' representation today, from mosques to\r\nsecular non<\/span>-profit institutions like CAIR.\r\nThe one thing which perhaps sheds some penetrating light on this vile\r\nzeitgeist<\/span> is the following insight of\r\nMartin Luther King Jr. into a colonized mind:<\/p>\r\n

\r\n“The\r\nwhite establishment is skilled in flattering and cultivating emerging\r\nleaders. It presses its own image on them and finally, from imitation\r\nof manners, dress, and style of living, a deeper strain of corruption\r\ndevelops. This kind of Negro leader acquires the white man’s\r\ncontempt for the ordinary Negro. He is often more at home with the\r\nmiddle-class white than he is among his own people. His language\r\nchanges, his location changes, his income changes, and ultimately he\r\nchanges from the representative of the Negro to the white man into\r\nthe white man’s representative to the Negro. The tragedy is\r\nthat too often he does not recognize what has happened to him.”,\r\n-- (Martin Luther King Jr., A Testament of Hope, pg.<\/span>\r\n307)<\/p>\r\n

\r\nAll\r\nthat is the primary reason why Professor Hatem Bazian is cc'ed on my\r\nletter to CAIR. As a well-known Muslim scholar of SF-BAY Area who\r\ngraces many a Friday sermon in Bay Area mosques, someone whom I know\r\n(but who may not know me as I am only a plebeian once found sitting\r\nquietly in the audience but no longer bother), and one who is\r\nacknowledged prominently in the CAIR report by CAIR's Executive\r\nDirector on page-5 “I would like to extend my thanks to the\r\nfollowing people who contributed to the production of this report:\r\nKhadija Athman and Dr. Hatem Bazian”,<\/i> the good professor\r\nmust publicly account for its short-comings alongside CAIR and their\r\nother technical advisors.<\/p>\r\n

\r\nPage-2\r\nof the CAIR report squarely lays the blame for the grotesque\r\nomissions I charge them with, only upon CAIR and their technical\r\nadvisors: \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\n“This\r\nreport is co-sponsored by the University of California, Berkeley’s\r\nCenter for Race and Gender and the Council on American-Islamic\r\nRelations (CAIR). The Center for Race and Gender is responsible for\r\nthe special sections on Park 51 and the 2010 election. CAIR is\r\nresponsible for all other material in the report. This report was\r\nfinalized on Dec. 1, 2010. All information is accurate to the best of\r\nour knowledge through that date.”<\/p>\r\n

\r\n-\r\nAnd lastly, we see below an example of that axe of “useful\r\nidiot” being grinded<\/span> by CAIR while\r\nkeeping the core-axioms for the worship of their false gods intact\r\nand untouchable. CAIR might do well to replace “Islamic”\r\nwith “Muslim” in their title to become The\r\nCouncil on American-Muslim Relations<\/i><\/span> which is certainly<\/span>\r\nmore appropriate for an organization dealing with Muslim affairs in\r\nAmerica rather than dealing with the religion of Islam. Then, at\r\nleast ordinary ill-informed plebeians like me won't get confused by\r\ntheir omissions and half-narratives which are the staple of any\r\npolished propaganda system of the Mighty Wurlitzer.<\/p>\r\n

\r\nI\r\nlook forward to hearing what excuse CAIR will bring forth to explain\r\ntheir omissions – “didn't know” (useful idiot) or\r\n“conspiracy theory” (using the narrative of their own\r\nfalse gods). \r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nWith\r\nall the preceding sub-text of implicitly understood matters among\r\nMuslims behind us, reproduced below is my letter to CAIR objecting to\r\ntheir report. Preamble<\/span> is in [] brackets.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n[\r\nAOA, The glossy 68-page CAIR report is how many of us are co-opted\r\ninto muttering half-truths in the name of conscience, activism,\r\ndissent, representation, etc., when we do find the courage to give up\r\nour stoned silence. I am not sure which is better, half-truth\r\ndocumenting crimes against humanity (a Jewish proverb says: “a\r\nhalf truth is a full lie”), or, pathetic silence of the\r\nspectators in the face of crimes against humanity (which all books of\r\nwisdom and retrospective law (such as Nuremberg) say is criminal)?\r\nWhat I have learnt personally in this respect are two things. 1) That\r\nhalf-truths are part of Machiavellian political science. It always\r\nserves someone's purpose. And sometimes, rather often times, quite\r\nunbeknownst<\/span> to its narrators\/actors. That's\r\ncalled a \"useful idiot\" serving someone else's interests\r\nbut with the best noble motivations of one's own. Read the Mighty\r\nWurlitzer Report<\/u>.\r\nAnd 2) That silence is either a calculated part of wise cowardice,\r\nor, a lack of an abundance of foolish courage. Take your pick. It\r\nfollows that speaking the bold truth in completeness without any\r\nomissions, must be the act of “jihad-un-nafs” – no?\r\n Thank you, Zahir Ebrahim, Project Humanbeingsfirst.org ]<\/p>\r\n

\r\nHello<\/b>.<\/p>\r\n

\r\nThank\r\nyou for the link to CAIR document (Same\r\nHate, New Target: Islamophobia and Its Impact in the United States\r\nJanuary 2009-December 2010<\/u>)*. It will certainly come\r\nin handy one day if Muslims ever become like our Jewish brethren –\r\nthe eternal victims. The Jews have perfected the art of seeking\r\nendless claims, as noted in the Press Release ( Did\r\nYou or Your Family Take Palestinian Property during the Jewish\r\nZionist Era Since 1948? June 27, 2011<\/u> ). But we shall\r\nsurely “better that instruction” (Shakespeare in Merchant\r\nof Venice)**. Just kidding....<\/p>\r\n

\r\nBut\r\nthis PDF document of CAIR serves little purpose other than being a\r\nMighty Wurlitzer piece as a limited hangout. What else is the point\r\nof this documentation may I ask?<\/p>\r\n

\r\nDoes\r\nits colored and glossy 68 pages lend any insight whatsoever into the\r\nmotivation, the WHY Islamophobia is on the rise in USA – what\r\nwas the purpose to craftily seed it to begin with? It didn't\r\nmaterialize overnight you know.<\/p>\r\n

\r\nHere\r\nis a passage from the late Harvard professor Samuel Huntington's 1996\r\nbook, quoting professor emeritus of Princeton University, Bernard\r\nLewis from his 1990 article in the Council on Foreign Relations' rag,\r\nForeign<\/span> Affairs, crafting “Muslim\r\nRage” to define the framework for 9\/11 and the War on Terror a\r\nfull decade before it:<\/p>\r\n

\r\n“In\r\n1990 Bernard Lewis, a leading Western scholar of Islam, analyzed 'The\r\nRoots of Muslim Rage,' and concluded: 'It should now be clear that we\r\nare facing a mood and a movement far transcending the level of issues\r\nand policies and the governments that pursue them. This is no less\r\nthan a clash of civilizations - that perhaps irrational but surely\r\nhistoric reaction of an ancient rival against our Judeo-Christian\r\nheritage, our secular present, and the worldwide expansion of both.\r\nIt is crucially important that we on our side should not be provoked\r\ninto an equally historic but also equally irrational reaction against\r\nour rival.'” (Samuel Huntington, The Clash of Civilizations and\r\nthe Remaking of World Order, 1996, pg. 213)<\/p>\r\n

\r\nSadly,\r\nsuch motivations are neither disclosed nor deconstructed by the\r\nhigh-falutin glossy 68 page brochure of CAIR and their hoity-toity\r\nacademics acknowledged on pages 8-9 of that document. Perhaps I just\r\nscanned it too fast – perhaps CAIR has addressed it elsewhere\r\nand wanted to keep this brochure for the claimants' courts of the\r\nfuture....<\/p>\r\n

\r\nIf\r\ninterested, and tired of reading empire's useful idiots who, in order\r\nto ensure that imperial crumbs continue to fall on their academic\r\nplates, continually shy away from any bold and accurate articulation\r\nof truth (not that they don't know it – most Muslims such as\r\nthese learned souls surely must, but all are silenced by the\r\nexpectation of rewards, continued employment, or loss of benefits if\r\nthey speak up) by telling<\/span> half-stories and\r\npartial truths, read it here: 'War\r\non Terror' is not about 'Islamofascism' – Please get with the\r\nreal agenda you people!<\/u><\/p>\r\n

\r\nThat\r\nexplains why Islamophobia was seeded in the USA and EU, starting with\r\nBernard Lewis' fiction of “Muslim Rage”.<\/p>\r\n

\r\nWe\r\nonly see its backlash flourishing by the natural process of weed\r\nmultiplication<\/span> in any fertile green lawn.\r\nThe natural social dynamics of engineering consent are far better\r\nunderstood by the hectoring hegemons than the common\r\nman<\/span> can comprehend. Such processes, occasionally<\/span>\r\n“tickled” by the odd Qur'an burning parties here and\r\nthere which appear to be officially<\/span>\r\nprotected (by virtue of nothing ever happens to the Qur'an burners),\r\nkeep the notion of Islamophobia alive for good measure. And useful\r\nidiots like CAIR document them for our benefit, without lending any\r\ninsight into the matter. Wonderful....<\/p>\r\n

\r\nBut\r\nthe primary purpose has already been served by seeding the mantra of\r\n“Islamofascism” and “Muslim Rage”. (We\r\nalready harvested the perpetual War on Terror, the Fortress America,\r\nthe definition of the “domestic terrorist” to make a\r\nsuccessful police-state in Fortress America, and most bountiful of\r\nall harvests, the never-ending pretexts for “imperial\r\nmobilization” of Dr. Zbigniew Brzezinski to achieve the “global\r\ngovernance” of the bankster oligarchy.)<\/p>\r\n

\r\nThus,\r\nit is now fine for all the list of accolades for the \"BEST\"\r\non page 13 onwards in the glossy CAIR brochure to stand up to\r\nIslamophobia. Hegelian Dialectic requires both sides of the\r\nfabricated coin to be present. Both sides are fabricated, and\r\npatently false. (How does one tell it is a Hegelian Dialectic? By\r\nobserving that both sides, the Islamophobes and those opposing it,\r\nkeep the core-lies of empire very much intact. And they each do it by\r\nomission!)<\/p>\r\n

\r\nIn\r\nso far as it goes, CAIR is still the only Muslim organization that\r\ndoes whatever little it does. I am not sure if I should be thankful\r\nfor its generosity of purpose, which it is, or pull my remaining hair\r\nout for its useful idiot's role in America, which it also is.<\/p>\r\n
